Podcast Description
More Alike Than You Think is a narrative-driven interview podcast from PEAK Parent Center's Project POWER team that highlights the everyday lives, dreams, and identities of young adults with disabilities. By centering authentic, personal stories, the podcast invites listeners to see disability not as a limitation, but as one facet of full and complex human lives.
Through candid conversations, we explore topics such as friendship, independence, work, love, mental health, and the small details that shape who we are. We aim to reframe the way people understand disability—not by ignoring it, but by showing the full humanity of the people who live it.
